Said Saints QBDrew Brees of the final weekend, “Regardless of what happened last week, the week before, whatever, I want the lasting impression in people’s minds to be something really good. We have one more game. I want it to be really good for this team, not only the result but the way we play. I want to be sharp.”

Said Rams QBSam Bradford of playing in Seattle, “I think it’s a great, great atmosphere to play in. You know their fans are going to be into it. It’s going to be a challenge for us. We had to work a couple of ‘whisper’ cadences at practice — just getting everyone used to not being able to hear the cadence. But, I think everyone in this locker room looks at it as a great challenge for us to go up and get another road win.”
